2002 JEEP LIBERTY turn signal

The tailgate will lock and can not be unlocked if
the rear wiper switch is activated. The tailgate will
also lock if battery power is lost and then restored.
The tailgate/flip-up glass will not function with the
battery discharged or disconnected.
COMBINATION FLASHER
This flasher can be energized by the BCM to flash
all of the park/turn signal lamps as a optical alert for
the RKE panic function and, if the Flash Lights with
Lock programmable feature is enabled, as an optical
verification for the RKE lock event.
HORN RELAY
This relay can be energized by the BCM to sound
the horns as an audible alert for the RKE panic func-
tion and, if the Sound Horn on Lock programmable
feature is enabled, as an audible verification for the
RKE lock event.
LOW BEAM HEADLAMP RELAY
This relay can be energized by the BCM to flash
the headlamp low beams as an optical alert for the
RKE panic function.
OPERATION
POWER LOCKS
The Body Control Module (BCM) locks or unlocks
the doors when an actuation input signal from a door
lock switch or Remote Keyless Entry Module (RKE)
is received. The BCM turns on the output drivers
and provides a voltage level to the door lock motor
for a specified time. All passenger doors can be
locked or unlocked using a mechanical button
mounted on the door trim panel. The front passenger
doors and tailgate can be locked or unlocked by using
the key cylinder (tailgate cylinder does not lock/un-
lock vehicle. It only unlocks the tailgate). The tail-
gate will lock and can not be unlocked if the rear
wiper switch is activated (this prevents the wiper
from operating when the tailgate is ajar). The tail-
gate will also lock if battery power is lost and then
restored.
AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS
When the automatic door locks are ENABLED the
door locks will lock when the vehicle is moving at
about 25.7 Km/h (15 mph), all doors are closed and
the accelerator pedal is depressed. This feature can
be switched ON or OFF as desired. When the system
is DISABLED the door locks will operate normally,
but will not lock automatically when the vehicle is
rolling. Once the automatic door locks have been
actuated, they will not try to lock the doors again
until a door is opened.
DOOR LOCK INHIBIT
If the key is in the ignition, in any position, and
either front door is ajar, the doors can not be locked,
but the unlock function still operates. Pressing the
RKE lock/unlock button under these conditions will
result in a normal lock/unlock activation.
After the key is removed from the Ignition Switch,
or the doors are closed, the power door locks will
operate normally.
DOOR LOCK CIRCUIT PROTECTION
The BCM controls the door lock relays. If the door
lock switch is actuated continuously for more than
five seconds the BCM will turn the output driver
OFF (the BCM would consider the switch stuck).
Each lock motor is protected with a Positive Temper-
ature Coefficient device that prevents motor burn
out.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
²LOCK: Pressing the LOCK button locks all
doors, sounds horn (chirp) if enabled, and arms the
Vehicle Theft Security System, if enabled. The chirp
verifies that the RKE receiver has sent a message to
the BCM for door lock operation. If a door has not
been closed before pressing the LOCK button, the
vehicle may not be secured and the VTSS (if
equipped) will not arm until the door is closed.
²UNLOCK: Pressing the UNLOCK button once
will unlock the driver's door and activate the illumi-
nated entry system and disarm Vehicle Theft Secu-
rity System, if equipped. Pressing the UNLOCK
button twice within five seconds will unlock all doors.
²TAILGATE: Pressing the TAILGATE BUTTON
unlocks the tailgate remotely and opens the flip-up
glass.
²PANIC: Pressing the PANIC button sounds the
horns at half second intervals, flashes the exterior
lamps, and turns ON the interior lamps. The panic
alarm will remain on for three minutes, or until the
PANIC button is actuated again or the ignition
switch is turned to the RUN position.
The Remote Keyless Entry Module is capable of
retaining the transmitter Vehicle Access Code(s) in
its memory even after vehicle power has been inter-
rupted.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER LOCKS
The Body Control Module (BCM) enters a
reduced power mode after the key is turned
OFF. All diagnosis and testing of the power lock
system must be done with the key in the ON
position unless otherwise stated.
The most reliable, efficient, and accurate
means to diagnose the power lock system
requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool and the

is located on the back side of each vertical member of
the radiator support.
²Passenger Airbag- The passenger airbag is
located on the instrument panel, beneath the passen-
ger airbag door on the instrument panel above the
glove box on the passenger side of the vehicle.
²Passenger Knee Blocker- The passenger knee
blocker is a structural reinforcement that is integral
to and concealed within the glove box door.
²Seat Belt Tensioner- The seat belt tensioner
is integral to the driver side front seat belt retractor
unit on vehicles equipped with dual front airbags.
²Side Impact Airbag Control Module-Two
Side Impact Airbag Control Modules (SIACM) are
used on vehicles with the optional side curtain air-
bags, one left side and one right side. One SIACM is
located behind the B-pillar trim near the base of each
B-pillar.
²Side Curtain Airbag- In vehicles equipped
with this option, a side curtain airbag is located on
each inside roof side rail above the headliner, and
extends from the A-pillar to just beyond the C-pillar.
The ACM, both SIACMs, and the EMIC each con-
tain a central processing unit and programming that
allow them to communicate with each other using
the Programmable Communication Interface (PCI)
data bus network. This method of communication is
used by the ACM for control of the airbag indicator
on all models equipped with dual front airbags.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CON-
TROL MODULES/COMMUNICATION - DESCRIP-
TION).
Hard wired circuitry connects the supplemental
restraint system components to each other through
the electrical system of the vehicle. These hard wired
circuits are integral to several wire harnesses, which
are routed throughout the vehicle and retained by
many different methods. These circuits may be con-
nected to each other, to the vehicle electrical system,
and to the supplemental restraint system compo-
nents through the use of a combination of soldered
splices, splice block connectors, and many different
types of wire harness terminal connectors and insu-
lators. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
The wiring information includes wiring diagrams,
proper wire and connector repair procedures, further
details on wire harness routing and retention, as well
as pin-out and location views for the various wire
harness connectors, splices and grounds.
OPERATION
ACTIVE RESTRAINTS The primary passenger
restraints in this or any other vehicle are the stan-
dard equipment factory-installed seat belts. Seat
belts are referred to as an active restraint because
the vehicle occupants are required to physically fas-ten and properly adjust these restraints in order to
benefit from them. See the owner's manual in the
vehicle glove box for more information on the fea-
tures, use and operation of all of the factory-installed
active restraints.
PASSIVE RESTRAINTS The passive restraints
system is referred to as a supplemental restraint sys-
tem because they were designed and are intended to
enhance the protection for the vehicle occupants of
the vehicleonlywhen used in conjunction with the
seat belts. They are referred to as passive systems
because the vehicle occupants are not required to do
anything to make them operate; however, the vehicle
occupants must be wearing their seat belts in order
to obtain the maximum safety benefit from the facto-
ry-installed supplemental restraint systems.
The supplemental restraint system electrical cir-
cuits are continuously monitored and controlled by a
microprocessor and software contained within the
Airbag Control Module (ACM) and, on vehicles
equipped with the side curtain airbags, both Side
Impact Airbag Control Modules (SIACM). An airbag
indicator in the ElectroMechanical Instrument Clus-
ter (EMIC) illuminates for about seven seconds as a
bulb test each time the ignition switch is turned to
the On or Start positions. Following the bulb test,
the airbag indicator is turned on or off by the ACM
to indicate the status of the supplemental restraint
system. If the airbag indicator comes on at any time
other than during the bulb test, it indicates that
there is a problem in the supplemental restraint sys-
tem electrical circuits. Such a problem may cause air-
bags not to deploy when required, or to deploy when
not required.
Deployment of the supplemental restraints
depends upon the angle and severity of an impact.
Deployment is not based upon vehicle speed; rather,
deployment is based upon the rate of deceleration as
measured by the forces of gravity (G force) upon the
impact sensors. When an impact is severe enough,
the microprocessor in the ACM or the SIACM signals
the inflator unit of the airbag module to deploy the
airbag. The seat belt tensioner is provided with a
deployment signal by the ACM in conjunction with
the driver airbag. During a frontal vehicle impact,
the knee blockers work in concert with properly fas-
tened and adjusted seat belts to restrain both the
driver and the front seat passenger in the proper
position for an airbag deployment. The knee blockers
also absorb and distribute the crash energy from the
driver and the front seat passenger to the structure
of the instrument panel. The seat belt tensioner
removes the slack from the driver side front seat belt
to provide further assurance that the driver is prop-
erly positioned and restrained for an airbag deploy-
ment.

airbag unit, the headliner, as well as the upper A, B,
and C-pillar trim must be replaced. These compo-
nents are not intended for reuse and will be damaged
or weakened as a result of a supplemental restraint
deployment, which may or may not be obvious during
a visual inspection.
On vehicles with an optional sunroof, the sunroof
drain tubes and hoses must be closely inspected fol-
lowing a side curtain airbag deployment. It is also
critical that the mounting surfaces and/or mounting
brackets for the Airbag Control Module (ACM), Side
Impact Airbag Control Module (SIACM), and front
impact sensors be closely inspected and restored to
their original conditions following any vehicle impact
damage. Because the ACM, SIACM, and each front
impact sensor are used by the supplemental restraint
system to monitor or confirm the direction and sever-
ity of a vehicle impact, improper orientation or inse-
cure fastening of these components may cause
airbags not to deploy when required, or to deploy
when not required. All other vehicle components
should be closely inspected following any other sup-
plemental restraint deployment, but are to be
replaced only as required by the extent of the visible
damage incurred.
AIRBAG SQUIB STATUS
Multistage airbags with multiple initiators (squibs)
must be checked to determine that all squibs were
used during the deployment event. The driver and
passenger airbags in this model are deployed by elec-
trical signals generated by the Airbag Control Mod-
ule (ACM) through the driver or passenger squib 1
and squib 2 circuits to the two initiators in the air-
bag inflators. Typically, both initiators are used andall potentially hazardous chemicals are burned dur-
ing an airbag deployment event. However, it is possi-
ble for only one initiator to be used due to an airbag
system fault; therefore, it is always necessary to con-
firm that both initiators have been used in order to
avoid the improper handling or disposal of poten-
tially live pyrotechnic or hazardous materials. The
following procedure should be performed using a
DRBIIItscan tool to verify the status of both airbag
squibs before either deployed airbag is removed from
the vehicle for disposal.
CAUTION: Deployed front airbags having two initia-
tors (squibs) in the airbag inflator may or may not
have live pyrotechnic material within the inflator. Do
not dispose of these airbags unless you are sure of
complete deployment. Refer to the Hazardous Sub-
stance Control System for proper disposal proce-
dures. Dispose of all non-deployed and deployed
airbags in a manner consistent with state, provin-
cial, local, and federal regulations.
(1) Be certain that the DRBIIItscan tool contains
the latest version of the proper DRBIIItsoftware.
Connect the DRBIIItto the 16-way Data Link Con-
nector (DLC). The DLC is located on the driver side
lower edge of the instrument panel, outboard of the
steering column.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
(3) Using the DRBIIIt, read and record the active
(current) Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) data.
Using the active DTC information, refer to theAir-
bag Squib Statustable to determine the status of
both driver and/or passenger airbag squibs.

a molded plastic turn signal cancel cam with a single
lobe that is integral to the rotor. Within the plastic
case and wound around the rotor spool is a long rib-
bon-like tape that consists of several thin copper wire
leads sandwiched between two thin plastic mem-
branes. The outer end of the tape terminates at the
connector receptacles that face the instrument panel,
while the inner end of the tape terminates at the pig-
tail wires and connector receptacle on the hub of the
clockspring rotor that face the steering wheel.
Service replacement clocksprings are shipped pre-
centered and with a molded plastic shield that snaps
onto the rotor over the release button. The release
button secures the centered clockspring rotor to the
clockspring case and the shield prevents the release
button from being inadvertently depressed during
shipment and handling, but the shield must be
removed from the clockspring after it is installed on
the steering column. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/RE-
STRAINTS/CLOCKSPRING - STANDARD PROCE-
DURE - CLOCKSPRING CENTERING).
The clockspring cannot be repaired. If the clock-
spring is faulty, damaged, or if the driver airbag has
been deployed, the clockspring must be replaced.
OPERATION
The clockspring is a mechanical electrical circuit
component that is used to provide continuous electri-
cal continuity between the fixed instrument panel
wire harness and the electrical components mounted
on or in the rotating steering wheel. On this model
the rotating electrical components include the driver
airbag, the horn switch, the speed control switches,and the remote radio switches, if the vehicle is so
equipped. The clockspring case is positioned and
secured to the upper steering column housing near
the top of the steering column. The connector recep-
tacles on the tail of the fixed clockspring case connect
the clockspring to the vehicle electrical system
through two take outs with connectors from the
instrument panel wire harness. The clockspring rotor
is movable and is keyed by the tower formation that
is molded onto the upper surface of the rotor hub to
an opening that is cast into the steering wheel arma-
ture. Rubber bumper blocks on either side of the
clockspring tower formation eliminate contact noise
between the clockspring tower and the steering
wheel. The lobe of the turn signal cancel cam on the
lower surface of the clockspring rotor hub contacts a
turn signal cancel actuator of the multi-function
switch to provide automatic turn signal cancellation.
The yellow-sleeved pigtail wires on the upper surface
of the clockspring rotor connect the clockspring to the
driver airbag, while a steering wheel wire harness
connects the connector receptacle on the upper sur-
face of the clockspring rotor to the horn switch and,
if the vehicle is so equipped, to the optional speed
control switches and remote radio switches on the
steering wheel.
Like the clockspring in a timepiece, the clockspring
tape has travel limits and can be damaged by being
wound too tightly during full stop-to-stop steering
wheel rotation. To prevent this from occurring, the
clockspring is centered when it is installed on the
steering column. Centering the clockspring indexes
the clockspring tape to the movable steering compo-
nents so that the tape can operate within its
designed travel limits. However, if the clockspring is
removed from the steering column or if the steering
shaft is disconnected from the steering gear, the
clockspring spool can change position relative to the
movable steering components and must be re-cen-
tered following completion of the service or the tape
may be damaged. Service replacement clocksprings
are shipped pre-centered and with a plastic shield
installed over the clockspring release button. This
shield should not be removed and the release button
should not be depressed until the clockspring has
been installed on the steering column. If the release
button is depressed before the clockspring is installed
on a steering column, the clockspring centering pro-
cedure must be performed. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/RESTRAINTS/CLOCKSPRING - STANDARD

The resistive membrane-type horn switch is
secured with heat stakes to the inside surface of the
driver airbag trim cover, between the trim cover and
the folded airbag cushion. The horn switch ground
pigtail wire has a female spade terminal connector
that receives a path to ground through a male spade
terminal that is integral to the driver airbag housing
stamping and is located near the upper right corner
on the back of the housing (Fig. 15). The horn switch
feed pigtail wire has a white, molded plastic insula-
tor that is secured by an integral retainer to a
mounting hole located near the lower left corner on
the back of the housing, and is connected to the vehi-
cle electrical system through a take out and connec-
tor of the steering wheel wire harness.
The airbag used in this model is a multistage, Next
Generation-type that complies with revised federal
airbag standards to deploy with less force than those
used in some prior models. A 67 centimeter (26.5
inch) diameter, radial deploying fabric cushion with
tethers is used. The airbag inflator is a dual-initiator,
non-azide, pyrotechnic-type unit with four mounting
studs and is secured to the stamped metal airbag
housing using four hex nuts with washers. Two
keyed and color-coded connector receptacles on the
driver airbag inflator connect the two inflator initia-
tors to the vehicle electrical system through two yel-
low-jacketed, two-wire pigtail harnesses of the
clockspring. The driver airbag and horn switch unit
cannot be repaired, and must be replaced if deployed
or in any way damaged.OPERATION
The multistage driver airbag is deployed by electri-
cal signals generated by the Airbag Control Module
(ACM) through the driver airbag squib 1 and squib 2
circuits to the two initiators in the airbag inflator. By
using two initiators, the airbag can be deployed at
multiple levels of force. The force level is controlled
by the ACM to suit the monitored impact conditions
by providing one of three delay intervals between the
electrical signals provided to the two initiators. The
longer the delay between these signals, the less force-
fully the airbag will deploy. When the ACM sends the
proper electrical signals to each initiator, the electri-
cal energy generates enough heat to initiate a small
pyrotechnic charge which, in turn ignites chemical
pellets within the inflator. Once ignited, these chem-
ical pellets burn rapidly and produce a large quantity
of nitrogen gas. The inflator is sealed to the back of
the airbag housing and a diffuser in the inflator
directs all of the nitrogen gas into the airbag cush-
ion, causing the cushion to inflate. As the cushion
inflates, the driver airbag trim cover will split at pre-
determined breakout lines, then fold back out of the
way along with the horn switch unit. Following an
airbag deployment, the airbag cushion quickly
deflates by venting the nitrogen gas towards the
instrument panel through vent holes within the fab-
ric used to construct the back (steering wheel side)
panel of the airbag cushion.
Some of the chemicals used to create the nitrogen
gas may be considered hazardous while in their solid
state before they are burned, but they are securely
sealed within the airbag inflator. Typically, both ini-
tiators are used and all potentially hazardous chem-
icals are burned during an airbag deployment event.
However, it is possible for only one initiator to be
used during a deployment due to an airbag system
fault; therefore, it is necessary to always confirm
that both initiators have been used in order to avoid
the improper disposal of potentially live pyrotechnic
or hazardous materials. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
RESTRAINTS - STANDARD PROCEDURE - SER-
VICE AFTER A SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
DEPLOYMENT). The nitrogen gas that is produced
when the chemicals are burned is harmless. How-
ever, a small amount of residue from the burned
chemicals may cause some temporary discomfort if it
contacts the skin, eyes, or breathing passages. If skin
or eye irritation is noted, rinse the affected area with
plenty of cool, clean water. If breathing passages are
irritated, move to another area where there is plenty
of clean, fresh air to breath. If the irritation is not
alleviated by these actions, contact a physician.

SPEED CONTROL
DESCRIPTION
The speed control system is electronically con-
trolled and vacuum operated. Electronic control of
the speed control system is integrated into the Pow-
ertrain Control Module (PCM). The controls consist
of two steering wheel mounted switches. The
switches are labeled: ON/OFF, RES/ACCEL, SET,
COAST, and CANCEL.
The system is designed to operate at speeds above
30 mph (50 km/h).
WARNING: THE USE OF SPEED CONTROL IS NOT
RECOMMENDED WHEN DRIVING CONDITIONS DO
NOT PERMIT MAINTAINING A CONSTANT SPEED,
SUCH AS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC OR ON ROADS THAT
ARE WINDING, ICY, SNOW COVERED, OR SLIP-
PERY.
OPERATION
When speed control is selected by depressing the
ON switch, the PCM allows a set speed to be stored
in PCM RAM for speed control. To store a set speed,
depress the SET switch while the vehicle is moving
at a speed between 35 and 85 mph. In order for the
speed control to engage, the brakes cannot be
applied, nor can the gear selector be indicating the
transmission is in Park or Neutral.
The speed control can be disengaged manually by:
²Stepping on the brake pedal
²Depressing the OFF switch²Depressing the CANCEL switch.
²Depressing the clutch pedal (if equipped).
NOTE: Depressing the OFF switch or turning off the
ignition switch will erase the set speed stored in
the PCM.
For added safety, the speed control system is pro-
grammed to disengage for any of the following condi-
tions:
²An indication of Park or Neutral
²A rapid increase rpm (indicates that the clutch
has been disengaged)
²Excessive engine rpm (indicates that the trans-
mission may be in a low gear)
²The speed signal increases at a rate of 10 mph
per second (indicates that the coefficient of friction
between the road surface and tires is extremely low)
²The speed signal decreases at a rate of 10 mph
per second (indicates that the vehicle may have
decelerated at an extremely high rate)
Once the speed control has been disengaged,
depressing the RES/ACCEL switch (when speed is
greater than 30 mph) restores the vehicle to the tar-
get speed that was stored in the PCM.
While the speed control is engaged, the driver can
increase the vehicle speed by depressing the RES/AC-
CEL switch. The new target speed is stored in the
PCM when the RES/ACCEL is released. The PCM
also has a9tap-up9feature in which vehicle speed
increases at a rate of approximately 2 mph for each
momentary switch activation of the RES/ACCEL
switch.

electronic circuitry of the ITM which includes a
microprocessor, and an ultrasonic receive transducer.
A molded plastic connector receptacle containing six
terminal pins that is soldered to a small circuit board
and extends through a clearance hole in the left front
corner of the ITM housing, and an ultrasonic trans-
mit transducer housing extends from the center of
the right side of the ITM housing. Both the transmit
transducer on the right side of the module and the
receive transducer on the ITM circuit board are
aimed through two small round holes in the sight
shield of the trim cover. The ITM is connected to the
vehicle electrical system by a dedicated take out and
connector of the overhead wire harness that is inte-
gral to the headliner.
The ITM unit cannot be adjusted or repaired and,
if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced. The ITM is
serviced as a unit with the trim cover.
OPERATION
The microprocessor in the Intrusion Transceiver
Module (ITM) contains the motion sensor logic cir-
cuits and controls all of the features of the premium
version of the Vehicle Theft Alarm (VTA). The ITM
uses On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) and can communi-
cate with other electronic modules in the vehicle as
well as with the DRBIIItscan tool using the Pro-
grammable Communications Interface (PCI) data bus
network. This method of communication is used by
the ITM to communicate with the Body Control Mod-
ule (BCM) and for diagnosis and testing through the
16-way data link connector located on the driver side
lower edge of the instrument panel. The ITM also
communicates with the alarm siren over a dedicated
serial bus circuit.
The ITM microprocessor continuously monitors
inputs from its on-board motion sensor circuitry as
well as inputs from the BCM and the alarm siren
module. The on-board ITM motion sensor circuitry
transmits ultrasonic signals into the vehicle cabin
through a transmit transducer, then listens to the
returning signals as the bounce off of objects in the
vehicle interior. If an object is moving in the interior,
a detection circuit in the ITM senses this movement
through the modulation of the returning ultrasonic
signals that occurs due to the Doppler effect. The
motion detect function of the ITM can be disabled by
depressing the ªLockº button on the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) transmitter three times within fifteen
seconds, while the security indicator is still flashing
rapidly. The ITM will signal the alarm siren module
to provide a single siren ªchirpº as an audible confir-
mation that the motion sensor function has been dis-
abled.
If movement is detected, the ITM sends an elec-
tronic message to the BCM over the PCI data bus toflash the exterior lighting and sends an electronic
message to the alarm siren module over a dedicated
serial bus line to sound the siren. When the BCM
detects a breach in the perimeter protection through
a door, tailgate, flip-up glass, or hood ajar switch
input, it sends an electronic message to the ITM and
the ITM sends an electronic message to the BCM
over the PCI data bus to flash the exterior lighting
and sends an electronic message to the alarm siren
module over a dedicated serial bus line to sound the
siren. The ITM also monitors inputs from the alarm
siren module for siren battery or siren input/output
circuit tamper alerts, and siren battery condition
alerts, then sets active and stored Diagnostic Trouble
Codes (DTC) for any monitored system faults it
detects. An active fault only remains for the current
ignition switch cycle, while a stored fault causes a
DTC to be stored in memory by the ITM. If a fault
does not recur for fifty ignition cycles, the ITM will
automatically erase the stored DTC.
The ITM is connected to the vehicle electrical sys-
tem through a dedicated take out and connector of
the overhead wire harness. The ITM receives battery
current on a fused B(+) circuit through a fuse in the
Junction Block (JB), and receives ground through a
ground circuit and take out of the body wire harness.
This ground take out has a single eyelet terminal
connector that is secured by a ground screw to the
base of the left D-pillar behind the quarter trim
panel. These connections allow the ITM to remain
operational, regardless of the ignition switch position.
The hard wired inputs and outputs for the ITM may
be diagnosed and tested using conventional diagnos-
tic tools and procedures. However, conventional diag-
nostic methods will not prove conclusive in the
diagnosis of the ITM, the PCI data bus network, or
the electronic message inputs to and outputs from
the ITM. The most reliable, efficient, and accurate
means to diagnose the ITM, the PCI data bus net-
work, and the electronic message inputs to and out-
puts from the ITM requires the use of a DRBIIIt
scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic infor-
mation.

control stalk to a detent position selects the Off,
Delay, or On rear wiper system operating modes.
Rotating the control ring on the control stalk to
either of two Wash positions actuates the momentary
rear washer system switch. The multi-function
switch provides hard wired outputs to the rear wiper
module and the washer pump/motor unit for all rear
wiper and washer system functions.
The rear wiper and washer system will only oper-
ate when the ignition switch is in the Accessory or
On positions, and the rear flip-up glass and tailgate
ajar switches are closed. Battery current is directed
from a fuse in the Junction Block (JB) to the multi-
function switch through a fused ignition switch out-
put (run-acc) circuit. The internal circuitry of the
right (wiper) control stalk of the multi-function
switch then provides battery current signals through
a rear wiper on driver circuit and a rear wiper inter-
mittent driver circuit to the rear wiper module and
to the Body Control Module (BCM). The BCM uses
these rear wiper system inputs as a signal to lock the
rear flip-up glass and the tailgate to prevent the rear
flip-up glass or tailgate from being opened for as long
as the rear wiper is operating. The multi-function
switch circuitry also uses this battery current and a
ground circuit input to directly control the operation
and direction of the reversible electric washer pump/
motor unit.
A separate fuse in the JB provides battery current
to the electronic control circuitry of the rear wiper
module through a fused B(+) circuit. The rear wiper
module uses this fused B(+) input to park the rear
wiper blade off of the rear flip-up glass if the ignition
switch is turned to the Off position while the rear
wiper is operating, or if the ignition switch is turned
to the Off position before the rear wiper blade has
parked. However, if the ignition switch is turned to
the Off position while the rear wiper is operating,
then turned back On, the rear wiper switch must be
cycled to the Off position and back to the On or
Delay position before the rear wiper will operate
again. In addition, the rear wiper module receives an
input from the rear flip-up glass ajar switch on a
flip-up glass ajar switch sense circuit, which prevents
the rear wiper from operating when the flip-up glass
is not closed or fully latched.
The hard wired circuits and components of the rear
wiper and washer system may be diagnosed and
tested using conventional diagnostic tools and proce-
dures. Following are paragraphs that briefly describe
the operation of each of the rear wiper and washer
system operating modes.
CONTINUOUS WIPE MODE When the On posi-
tion of the control ring on the right (wiper) control
stalk of the multi-function switch is selected, the
multi-function switch circuitry directs a battery cur-rent signal to the rear wiper module through the
rear wiper on driver circuit, causing the rear wiper to
cycle continuously at a fixed speed.
INTERMITTENT WIPE MODE When the Delay
position of the control ring on the right (wiper) con-
trol stalk of the multi-function switch is selected, the
multi-function switch circuitry directs a battery cur-
rent signal to the rear wiper module through the
rear wiper intermittent driver circuit, causing the
rear wiper to cycle intermittently at a fixed delay
interval.
WASH MODE When the momentary Wash (after
On) position of the control ring on the right (wiper)
control stalk of the multi-function switch is selected,
the multi-function switch circuitry directs both bat-
tery current and ground to the washer pump/motor
unit, and a battery current signal to be provided to
the rear wiper module through the rear wiper on
driver circuit. This will cause the washer pump/mo-
tor unit to be energized and the rear wiper to cycle
continuously at a fixed speed for as long as the rear
Wash switch is held closed.
WIPE-AFTER-WASH MODE When the momentary
Wash (before Off) position of the control ring on the
right (wiper) control stalk of the multi-function
switch is selected, the multi-function switch circuitry
directs both battery current and ground to the
washer pump/motor unit, and a battery current sig-
nal to be provided to the rear wiper module through
the rear wiper on driver circuit. This will cause the
washer pump/motor unit to be energized and the rear
wiper to cycle continuously at a fixed speed for as
long as the rear Wash switch is held closed. When
the control ring is released to the Off position, the
washer pump/motor is de-energized, but the circuitry
within the rear wiper module will provide several
additional wipe cycles to complete the wipe-after-
wash mode cycle.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - REAR WIPER &
WASHER SYSTEM
REAR WIPER SYSTEM
The diagnosis found here addresses an electrically
inoperative rear wiper system. If the rear wiper
motor operates, but the wiper does not move on the
rear flip-up glass, inspect the mechanical connection
between the rear wiper arm and the rear wiper
motor output shaft. If OK, replace the faulty rear
wiper module. If the wiper operates, but chatters,
lifts, or does not clear the glass, clean and inspect
the rear wiper system components as required. (Refer
to 8 - ELECTRICAL/REAR WIPERS/WASHERS -
INSPECTION) and (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
REAR WIPERS/WASHERS - CLEANING). Refer to
the appropriate wiring information. The wiring infor-
